Global Solar Balloon Market: Introduction
- Solar balloons are similar to hot air balloons that are heated directly by the sun. In solar balloons, radiation is used as a mix power system that utilizes solar power and high altitude winds. Solar balloons are primarily used in the toy market; however, they can also be used in the investigation of planet Mars.
- Solar balloons are used to produce energy as sun is a natural renewable energy source. Solar balloons produce energy at very less cost. The maintenance cost is also comparatively lesser than that of other resources.
